In Program Editor
-
I'm relatively new to programming and this site so excuse me if this is not in the right place. I'm making a program where I think it would be particularly handy to be able to edit the source code files or create new ones. What would be the best approach to doing this? I thought about just making a base program that then runs a .dll that contains all the members etc., but thinking about it today I think that would create a lot of issues. Is there a way to build the .exe and have it contain all the source files, and then be able to extract them, edit them, or insert new ones and dynamically add them into the current running program?

I don't necessarily need to be able to do this, it's just that my computer is not exactly fast. It takes me longer than I would like to stop the debug process, enter my code, and then restart it. Also, I'm going to put this on other computers that do not have VS installed unfortunately...and I would like if I could edit this code from there without having to go through VS's long install process.

You need to address the issues you are facing in a different way. CodeDOM presents security risks and is very complicated, it's not designed as work around solution.
only two letters away from being an asset

That doesn't make any sense because if any of the source code for your program changed you would need to rebuild it and redeploy it and it wouldn't be feasible to do that on the fly. Maybe you want to create a scripting style language to allow your users the ability to program some functionality in that way. Alternatively you could consider supporting some plug-in facilities.
